Here are a few of my latest finds and news from fashion, film, design, photography and beautiful living.

• Modern elegance. Black and white, stripes, nautical: a wonderful new take on Katie Ermilio’s Fall 2012 collection

• Black and white in this contemporary classic interior as well, brightened up by a pop of yellow.

• Looking forward to the Academy Awards on Sunday night. Any favourites?
• Cafe Society: glamour as it once was

    These shots from Katie Ermillio’s Fall collection are true perfection, I hadn’t seen them yet and now I’m almost shocked! Oh if she could make my wedding dress;)
    Christy looks insanely gorgeous, as always… And that messenger bag looks fabulous, you should go for it 🙂

    I didn’t know this designers, but the black&white looks by Katie Ermilio are stunning and so feminine. I cannot wait to see the gowns at Oscars! I still have to watch several movies that have been nominates (especially the Iron Lady and My Week with Marilyn), but I look forward to Michelle Williams’ choice as in the last months she always sported such beautiful dresses!

      Michelle has made some great red carpet choices. And her Vera Wang yellow dress worn at the Oscars several years back remains one of the most beautiful appearances on the red carpet ever in my opinion.

    I don’t remember having heard of Katie Emilio so thanks for the introduction.
    That room is simply stunning, one can’t go wrong with the classic combination of white, black and yellow, but is it okay if I replace the rug, I’m not the animal-anything-on-the-floor kind of girl 😉

    I’ve been enjoying your links. I so agree with you on the Mary Katrantzou collection; it was simply stunning. Christy Turlington must have found a way to stop time; she hasn’t changed at all! And yes, the Mango bag looks very pretty.

    Her collection is just gorgeous. So utterly feminine. I’m looking forward to the Oscars. I’ve seen almost all of the best picture nominees. Off to see another one tonight. As of now, I’m going with The Artist.

      It is, Natalia, thanks for asking. The snow has started to melt, so the sight is not a very pretty one, ha ha. But I’m glad spring is almost here.

    I’ve been a fan of Katie Ermillo since I was introduced to her by Rue. Her designs are always so feminine and beautifully cut. I love the black + white! Lovely selection of links; I’m intriguied by Cafe Society and off to take a peek! Oh and I’m very much looking forward to Sunday’s Oscars! xx
